    Hello B_Kicks_C- Thank you! I know it is something there! I can feel it. I just hope I can get some results before I am in a late stage and it becomes more difficult to treat.

    Thank you so much, ilovepugs  :) Does anyone happen to know if when you are going for a surgical consultation, is there an exam involved too? Or is it just discussing treatment options? I have not seen this oncologist before, but he is part of the medical group, so of course he has access to all my records.  Quite frankly, I'm a little tired of people looking at my breasts right now!! And they are still terribly bruised and swollen from the biopsies 2 weeks ago.

    Leelee ... got to get used to everybody looking at, and feeling your breasts.  My oncologist and my surgeon and my PCP all did physical exams ... and so did the radiation oncologist!  I was craving some privacy, especially by the time radiation was over ... I never wanted another person to touch me again! 

    Wishing you all the best,

    Bren

    LOL - I went for a different medical test a couple of weeks ago. I didn't listen to the directions and had the gown open in the front just because that happens so often! Turned out it was supposed to open in the back but I was well enough covered as they walked me down the hall that it didn't matter!

    Haha...both you girls just made me lol...a nice feeling on a day like this! Yep--Mr. Onc did briefly do an exam...but he already had all my info so whateves. Confirmed for double mastectomy, ILC diagnosis (some other LCIS as boob-mates as well, but as he explained the ILC trumps those guys so doesn't really matter in the scheme of things. LL
